Prices had their worst break since March 26 on increased volume. Two reasons stood out for the selling. The top one was the in dication as expressed by Secre tary Mqrgenthau that the admin istration will fight any proposals for a general tax relief at the present time. The second, losing in favor, was that the market was entitled to a drop at this time to consolidate the recent gains. Added to these were rumors and guesses. Among the latter wi.s the guess that Japan would not hold out long now that Ger many is out of the conflict.

( Advertisement Sponsored by President Is (luest At Capitol Luncheon WASHINGTON, May 10 (UP) The cloak of "security" which kept the American people pretty much in the dark about President Roosevelt's wartime travels was lifted today for President Tru man. With the end of the war in Europe, the office of censorship inlormed newspaper editors they may now tell where the presi dent has been, where he is, and where he's going, But they can't tell the exact time he's going somewhere, or by what route. CHICAGO GRAIN CHICAGO, May 10 (UP)-Evening-up operations and liqui dation prior to the government crop report depressed grain fu tures on the board of trade to day.

Weakness in securities added to the heavy undertone.

Later prices steadied somewhat on milling demand. Early weakness reflected the lower cash prices brought on by prospects of more normal move ment of grain since casing of the car shortage.
